So there I am showing off my newly overhauled Wedge to Wedg1e, while he is trying to grout his tiles.

Then it's time to say goodbye, and roar off up the road.

That's when my car refuses to leave his premises.
No roaring. Not even a small meow.

Did my Wedge realise that it was in the presence of a Wedge guru, a healer of misunderstood motors ?
For it had NEVER refused me before.

Ian, thankyou so much for waving your magic wand (ok - file and cleaning stuff), and demonstrating to me the necessity of just occasionally getting some dirt under my fingernails.

Sir, you are a gentleman and a scholar.

No problem, I suspect the WD40 may have been your downfall...
It's OK for repelling water at 12v, but at 25kV it may be breaking down and leaking HT.
